ThreadACME
ThreadACME details trapezoidal ACME thread callouts commonly used in power transmission applications. In addition to the shared thread attributes—label, quantity, nominal diameter, spacing (pitch and threads per inch), handedness, and depth—it records the ACME size and series designations. By structuring ACME data you can ensure lead screws or jackscrews are manufactured to the correct specification, compatible with off-the-shelf nuts, and supported by appropriate quality checks and inspection criteria. The object also captures confidence so rare thread variants can receive extra scrutiny.
